"Find this ridiculous: Broad slams ICC for fining Siraj for aggressive celebration at Lord's
Siraj has been penalised 15 per cent of his match fee after a breach in the ICC Code of Conduct during the fourth day of the third Test match against England at 'Home of Cricket', Lord's on Sunday. Siraj was guilty of breaching Article 2.5 of the ICC Code of Conduct for Players and Player Support Personnel, which relates to 'using language, actions or gestures which disparage or which could provoke an aggressive reaction from a batter upon his/her dismissal during an International Match.'. After the dismissal, Siraj celebrated close to the batter in his follow-through and made contact as Duckett began his walk back to the Lord's long room.
Taking to X, Broad wrote, 'Find this ridiculous. Siraj 15% for aggressive celebration. Gill swears live on tv & carries on and what? It's either both or neither. Players aren't and shouldn't be robots but consistency is key.'

In addition to the fine, one demerit point has been added to Siraj's disciplinary record, for whom it was the second offence in a 24-month period, taking his tally to two demerit points.
Notably, skipper Gill was seen sledging and shouting some explicit words at Crawley during the final moments on day four. Gill has so far, not been fined for his punishment.
Coming to the match, India are in massive trouble while chasing 193 runs at Lord's, at 112/8 after the first session on the final day, with all-rounder Ravindra Jadeja as their final hope. (ANI)

Animesh finishes second in 100m heats at Swiss meet
Animesh Kujur continued his brilliant run in the ongoing season by coming second in Heat C of 100m during the Spitzen Leichtathletik Luzern at Stadion Allmend in Lucerne, Switzerland, on Tuesday night. Coming into the race fresh from competing at the Monaco Diamond League last week, Kujur ran 10.28 seconds — his third-best personal time. While Sachin Dennis of Jamaica came first with a timing of 10.21 seconds, four more Indian athletes also took part in the race and pushed each other to the limit. Gurindervir Singh, who has a PB of 10.20 seconds and briefly held the 100m NR, came fourth with a timing of 10.54 seconds. Manikanta Hoblidhar, also a former 100m NR holder, followed suit with a time of 10.61 seconds. Odisha's DM Jayram and Lalu Prasad Bhoi were the next to cross the line. Jayram ran a PB of 10.65 seconds while Lalu crossed the line just 0.02 seconds later. However, Animesh was the most impressive of the Indian runners as he looks make good use of competing with the faster runners in the European circuit. While he is hoping to qualify for the World Championships in 200m, he is also aiming to break the 10-second mark in 100m. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like Cách giao dịch ETH/USD mà không cần nắm giữ Ether IC Markets Tìm hiểu thêm Undo He currently holds the 100m NR with a time of 10.18 seconds that he achieved during the Dromia International Sprint and Relays Meeting at Konstantinos Baglatzis Municipal Stadium in Vari, Greece, earlier this month. His coach Owen Martins, who trains him at Odisha Reliance Foundation Athletics High-Performance Centre (HPC) in Bhubaneswar, however is well aware that it's going to take some time. "It's a slow process. It's still 2 metres and it's a long way off. Athens wasn't a fast track. So there's a few tenths of a second there. Also, in an earlier race, the wind was 1.7 m/s as opposed to 0. 5 m/s when he ran. So you can get down to 10.12 seconds just by changing the wind. But it's a gradual process and again, that's not really what we're trying to aim for," said Martins.

India dig deep but England prevail
A slow‑burning contest that spectacularly sprang to life towards the end of the Moving Day, reached a thrilling conclusion. India fought tooth and nail until before going down to a determined England in a game for the ages in the third Test here on Monday. Resuming the final day of an engrossingly fought third Test at Lord's on 58/4 and needing another 135 runs to take a 2‑1 lead, India's hopes rested largely on the duo of KL Rahul and Rishabh Pant. They were the last remaining specialist batting pair and two of the most experienced players in the team. England skipper Ben Stokes (3/48) and Jofra Archer (3/55), playing his first Test in four years and picked for the crunch game purely on reputation rather than readiness for the rigours of five‑day cricket, however, put England on course for a massive win after leaving India reeling at 82/7. India, though, refused to throw in the towel and staged an incredible fightback with veteran Ravindra Jadeja (61 n.o., 181b) at the forefront of it with three nail‑biting partnerships that had everyone at the Home of Cricket on the edge of their seats. Jadeja, easily the Indian team's Most Valuable Player over the last decade, first forged a 30‑run stand for the eighth wicket with Nitish Kumar Reddy that was cut short at the stroke of lunch. At that stage, it looked dead and buried for India with another 81 runs needed and just two wickets in hand. One of them was Jasprit Bumrah, who had scored four successive ducks. England smelt blood and came charging in the post‑lunch session, but Bumrah soaked it all superbly to defy the hosts with sheer grit and gumption. He dead‑batted everything England threw at him, and with every defensive shot, he drew huge cheers from the massive Indian gathering, and confidence in Jadeja also started to grow. But this Test, in fact, series, has been such that every time a team seemingly has gained the momentum, things take a u‑turn. Bumrah, having batted for 104 minutes, went for a glory shot out of nowhere off Stokes and was caught at mid‑on. India, though, didn't give up with Mohammed Siraj slugging it out with Jadeja. Siraj even took a blow to his arm but soldiered on. It looked like he and Jadeja might pull off the impossible, but Shoaib Bashir dismissed him, the ball ricocheting off his bat onto the stumps as England wheeled away in celebrations. Siraj and Jadeja sunk in despair as the Indian innings folded up at 170, suffering a 22‑run loss. Earlier, Archer, hailed by Stokes as a genius who could change games with his pace and hostility, did exactly what the skipper proclaimed on the eve of the contest. Totally amped up following the war of words the two sides had been exchanging from late Saturday evening, the 30‑year‑old bowled with fire, passion, and deadly accuracy. The right‑armer, starting the attack along with Stokes, first dismissed Pant in his second over of the day with an absolute peach, the ball just straightening a shade after pitching, that left the wicketkeeper completely befuddled.
